are these two sets from the same brand ie; is Ruby Farms and R.B Rice the same?, if not should the 5 card legends set from Ruby Farms be removed from its listing, release notes say set is 15 cards but legends were a mail in offer from R.B. Rice

unsure on this as i never collected Racing when it was first released

can anyone help would really love an answer from racing fans

I'm afraid I will be of no help as Rudy Farms and R.B. Rice are both things not available in my area. Sorry!

Rudy Farms Sandwiches and R.B.Rice Sausages are not the same brand.  As far as I can tell, they aren't even the same parent company (Tyson and Sara Lee respectively).

All twenty cards were available through the Rudy Farms Sandwiches promotion.  The release notes on the Rudy Farms set are correct: "This twenty card set was produced by Pro Set. It was distributed in three card cello packs that were packaged in Rudy Farms sandwiches. The five legends cards were also available as a mail in promotional offer from R.B. Rice sausages."  

The five card Legends portion was ALSO available throug a promotion offer from R.B.Rice.  The R.B.Rice set cards are identical to the cards L1-L5 in the Rudy Farms set.

I pointed out to Admin a couple years ago the the five legends cards are effectively double-listed because of the situation, and they didn't seem to have a problem with it.  I thought the R.B.Rice set should be removed, but Admin left it alone.  I know that there is now a process to list the same cards under multiple products, but I haven't gotten around to brining this situation to Admin's attention again to see if that process can be used on these sets.

Sara Lee Corp. owns both Rudy's Farm and R.B. Rice

Thanks for the information, now I just have to find the legends cards again for the set, makes it hard to know what you have when the set is the same, my ruby farms will be correct as I got them as a complete set with folder
